csound play

OK- for csound syntax after write play:
then the fix would be (& it checks out on my Next...)
In stella/csound.lisp:
The defclass becomes:

(defclass csound-score-file (event-file header-mixin)
  ((orchestra :initarg orchestra :initform nil)
  (output :initarg output :initform nil)
  (syntax :initform (find-syntax ':csound))))

and the play-using-syntax method is now:

(defmethod play-using-syntax ((syntax csound) file &rest args)
	(declare (ignore args))
  #+mcl (format t "Sorry, can't play csound from Lisp on the Mac.~%")
  #-mcl	(let* ((ofile  (slot-value (find-stream file) 'output))
		(orc  (slot-value (find-stream file) 'orchestra))
		(command (format nil "~Aunix/playcsound -o ~A ~A ~A"
					*common-music-directory* ofile orc
					(namestring (truename file))))
		(plcmd (format nil "~Aunix/playsnd ~A"
					*common-music-directory* ofile)))
		(cm::shell command)
		(tell-user "Playing ~A ." ofile)
		(cm::shell plcmd)))

AND the TWO shell scripts (one to compile sound, other to play it...):
1) (Place in unix directory as playcsound and chmod a+x playcsound. Edit for your site!)

#!/bin/csh -f
if (-e /usr/local/bin/csound) then
	/usr/local/bin/csound $*
else if (-e /LocalApps/CSnd/csound) then
	 /LocalApps/CSnd/csound  $*
else echo "Can't find csound! Fix unix/playcsound in Common Music's directory."
endif

2)  (Place in unix directory as playsnd and chmod a+x playsnd. Edit for your site!)

#!/bin/csh -f
if (-e /musr/bin/newplay) then
	/musr/bin/newplay $1
else if (-e /usr/bin/sndplay) then
	 /usr/bin/sndplay $1
else echo "Can't find sound player! Fix unix/playsnd in Common Music's directory."
endif

Thank you for the help! (I didn't know about find-stream!)
